Blood Metabolite Patterns Linked to Gut Bacteria That May Help Diagnose and Target Alzheimer's Disease

Updated

Abstract

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia.

  • Early diagnosis of AD is limited by the invasiveness and accessibility of current biomarkers.
  • The gut-brain axis may play a significant role in linking gut health to brain function.
  • The potential for gut microbiota-related metabolites to serve as diagnostic tools for AD is not well-studied.
